Cupid’s Arrow Hits Mark: T-Mobile Offers Free 4G Phones to Celebrate Valentine’s
For one day only, on Feb.11, all of T-Mobile’s 4G smartphones and select mobile broadband devices are free with the switch to a qualifying two-year plan
BELLEVUE, Wash. — Feb. 7, 2012 — In the spirit of the season, T-Mobile USA, Inc. will show consumers lots of love with another jaw-dropping promotion for its “Valentine’s Day Sale.” For one day only, Saturday, Feb. 11, T-Mobile will give customers the chance to get their hands on the latest 4G smartphones and select tablets for free, making a perfect gift for loved ones or themselves. The promotion includes T-Mobile’s fastest 4G smartphones and select tablets running on America’s Largest 4G Network® such as the Samsung Galaxy S™ II1 and the T-Mobile® SpringBoard™ with Google™.
New and existing eligible customers can take advantage of this deal receiving their device for free after a mail-in rebate card when they sign up for a new two-year contract on any qualifying Classic Plan™2 or for a $0.00 down payment after mail-in rebate card when signing up on a qualifying Unlimited Value™3 Plan.
“T-Mobile has a commitment to make the 4G experience affordable and accessible to everyone, so this sweet deal on smartphones and tablets is our Valentine’s gift to consumers,” said John Clelland, senior vice president of marketing, T-Mobile USA. “No matter where loved ones live, T-Mobile wants to bring them closer with unlimited talking, photo sharing, video chatting, texting, and more.”
A recent online Omnibus survey4 with Harris Interactive found that four-in-ten (44%) of first time smartphone buyers in 2012 say the cost of the data plan associated with the smartphone is the most influential reason they have not purchased a smartphone before. The value for customers extends beyond the “Valentine’s Day Sale” as T-Mobile offers the best rate plan pricing on America’s Largest 4G Network.

Well guys.. here is more prof about that the new Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G is around the corner and we believe it will come as the Samsung T769. Why we believe that?.. Does not make any sense that Samsung releases the first and only Android phone made by the Korean company with HD display ( the Galaxy Nexus ) and at the same time, T-Mobile will offer a cheaper phone ( Blaze 4G ) with the same characteristics. Marketing talking, doesn’t work. That leave us that T-Mobile is planing to release 2 Samsung Android phones. One coming really soon and it just passed FCC is the Samsung T769 aka Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G. This phone will come with the same ARM11 processor used on the Galaxy S II and same screen resolution as the Vibrant, but more Brilliant ( Super Amoled Plus ?). WiFi b/g,n, HSPA + 850/1900/1700 and quadband GSM.

And the Samsung Galaxy Nexus T999, still did not passed FCC or even WiFi Certification. Also the T999 will probably carry the same 1.5 dual core processor but definitely will carry and HD display.
As you see, now we have the T769 aka Galaxy S Blaze 4G and T99 aka Galaxy Nexus coming to T-Mobile.
FOR SOME WE REMIND THEM THAT THE EXHIBIT 2 4G IS the T679.. so this phone is totally new one!.

AT&T and T-Mobile USA have fill up a file requesting the US FCC for its approval for the proposed $1 billion worth of transfer in wireless airwaves. T-Mobile will receive AWS spectrum from AT&T in 128 markets, a $3 billion cash breakup fee and a seven year UMTS roaming agreement.
T-Mobile has said it needs additional spectrum to keep pace with its larger competitors. It is the only major national carrier with no plan to roll out the faster fourth-generation mobile broadband service known as LTE, and it lost 849,000 contract customers in last year’s first nine months.
Tom Sugrue, T-Mobile’s senior vice president said “This additional spectrum will help meet the growing demand for wireless broadband services,” from a email statement from the Wall Street Journal.
